Sinugyrosanolide A, an unprecedented C-4 norcembranoid, from the Formosan soft coral Sinularia gyrosa.[Pubmed: 24529868]


Chemical investigations on the acetone extract of the Formosan soft coral Sinularia gyrosa have obtained a novel C-4 norcembranoid possessing an unprecedented tricyclo[9.3.0.0(3,8)]tetradecane skeleton, namely sinugyrosanolide A. The NMR spectroscopic data of the novel norcembranoid were completely assigned by using a combination of 2D NMR experiments including (1)H-(1)H COSY, HSQC, HMBC, and NOESY. The cytotoxicities, anti-HCMV (human cytomegalovirus) endonuclease activities and antibacterial activities were evaluated in vitro. It showed moderate cytotoxicity against P-388 (mouse lymphocytic leukemia) cancer cell line with an EC50 of 11.8μM.


Antiviral and anti-inflammatory diterpenoids from the soft coral Sinularia gyrosa.[Pubmed: 20499851]


Chemical investigation of the soft coral Sinularia gyrosa led to the purification of three new diterpenoids, designated as gyrosanols A-C (1-3). The structures of 1-3 were elucidated through extensive spectroscopic analyses. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited antiviral activity against HCMV with IC(50)'s of 2.6 and 3.7 microM, respectively. In addition, compounds 1 and 2 showed significant anti-inflammatory activity by reducing the levels of the COX-2 protein (19.6 + or - 3.9% and 29.1 + or - 9.6%, respectively) in RAW 264.7 macrophages.


Bioactive norditerpenoids from the soft coral Sinularia gyrosa.[Pubmed: 20430633]


Chemical investigations of the soft coral Sinularia gyrosa resulted in the isolation of six new norcembranolides, gyrosanolides A-F (1-6), a new norcembrane, gyrosanin A (7), and 11 known norditerpenoids 8-18. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated through extensive spectroscopic data and by comparison with reported data in the literature. Compounds 1-3, 7-9, 12, and 13 at concentration of 10microM did not inhibit the COX-2 protein expression, but significantly reduced the levels of the iNOS protein (55.2+/-14.6%, 18.6+/-6.7%, 10.6+/-4.6%, 66.9+/-5.2%, 10.2+/-5.1%, 17.4+/-7.2%, 47.2+/-11.9%, and 56.3+/-5.1%, respectively) by LPS stimulation. Compound 8 showed significant antiviral activity against HCMV (human cytomegalovirus) cells with an IC(50) of 1.9microg/mL.
